Hannah Fionda

Are you feeling anxious, low or depressed? Perhaps you feel stuck or overwhelmed and unsure where to turn.

Sometimes we all need someone to talk to, to share our thoughts and feelings with, without fear of judgement. Counselling can be really helpful with this but finding the right counsellor can feel daunting. I understand how much courage it takes to reach out for help.

I’m Hannah, a trauma informed, person-centred, integrative counsellor. I support clients with a range of issues and bring insight from lived experience of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety, perfectionism, caring responsibilities, chronic illness, disability, suicide, grief, neurodivergence and adoption. This helps me provide accessible, empathetic support to everyone.

I believe a strong therapeutic relationship is key to growth and change. I offer a warm, empathetic and safe space where you can talk openly, free from judgment. We’ll work collaboratively at your pace, helping you gain clarity, understand yourself more deeply, and make meaningful changes. I work flexibly, to suit your needs and offer both short and long-term work. My aim is to meet the needs of my clients where they are and not push my own solutions on them.

I offer telephone and online sessions across the UK and in-person sessions to adults in North Somerset/South Gloucestershire/Bristol.

For in-person sessions I work from accessible rooms in Clevedon, Portishead and Filton. Rooms in Portishead and Filton are dedicated counselling rooms.

Online sessions are held on google meet.

Whichever format you choose, we will work together to build a relationship that feels safe enough to talk about things that may be daunting or uncomfortable. After a free initial consultation, we will meet weekly, or fortnightly, and sessions last for 50 minutes. Sometimes a few weeks are enough, sometimes it can take longer. We will review our work together regularly to ensure you are getting what you need from our time together.
